    Tim Walz needs to activate the National Guard, state police, and local police to protect the community of the Twin Cities from fascist invasion and occupation.

    Else, ICE will keep killing, and it’s only a matter of time before regular citizens take up protection for themselves.

    And they’re right to do so.

        ACAB. We already know that the Fraternal Order of Police (FOP) in Minnesota are siding with ICE.

        Tim Walz doesn’t have to, and he’s the Commander in Chief in Minnesota.

          Also, if you concentrate and push hard enough, monkeys will pop out of your butt.

          I think many people think things will eventually go back to “normal”. MAGA isn’t going to let that happen. The democrats are far too weak and have no idea how to fight MAGA brainwashing. The only plus side is MAGA is nothing without Trump. When he dies, if the US hasn’t gone full civil war, then MAGA might start to die.

          I think MAGA wants a civil war though. They’re have too much fun killing people in Minnesota and these inbred fucks probably can’t wait to roll tanks into a city and open fire.

          If you lean left, these people want you dead.

      In a firing squad, all but one or two rifles are firing blanks so that no single shooter would ever know for certain that it was their bullet, and therefore it wouldn’t weigh on their conscience.

        I was taught that all the rounds are live, except one, so the victim takes multiple shots, but every shooter can convince themselves that they had the blank round, and didn’t kill.

        Otherwise you take a chance on those one or two shots not being mortal, and having to reload.

      We were talking about this the other day. ICE are idiots. They love to tear gas and always fog an entire area and effectively hide their enemy.

      I’m just waiting for this to happen, then the resistance crowd throws bottles of gas, then one person throws a flare. ICE wouldn’t even know what was happening. They can’t smell gas wearing gas masks.

      Disclaimer: I’m of course not advocating for this type of action.

    I’m thinking that those filter masks they wear can be gummed up by any thick liquid and cut off their air. Happened to me once or twice when working with a thin slurry refractory material inside a confined space. Just a thin layer of it would get on the inlet and prevent the flow of air through the canisters.

    Just a thought.

    Edit: this was posted to the wrong place. I’m leaving it though.

      Execution is worse in my opinion. A murder means the ICE agent acted against protocol and murdered a man. An execution implies this is a state sanctioned act of violence.

      Which is what it was. The goverment has empowered its agents to come into our cities and execute us.

          I don’t think that lawful execution of perfectly normal people intimates dignity.

          I’m fine with calling it both, by the way. It was a murder committed by an ICE officer, and it was an execution committed by the state, whom the officer represents. The state is executing people.

          While it may be illegal under the letter of the law the government has acted to justify and normalize this action as a perfectly legal action.

          Unless the government changes their statements we have to accept that DHS personal are allowed to kill Americans with total impunity. Those are executions.

    I had to keep jumping back to the start after the shots were fired because I couldn’t tell which one was firing. I saw the one guy remove the gun from his belt, but I didn’t actually see anyone pointing a gun at him when the shots went off. Silly me… I had been assuming it was one of any of the 5 guys actively struggling with him. I didn’t realize it was the guy standing next to them trying to find a way to pepper spray him in the face (again) before reacting to the sight of a gun on his person that was immediately removed by a colleague by grabbing his own gun and unloading a clip into the guy.

    Absolutely no justification for this, not even a long shot excuse about being in fear of his life. The gun wasn’t in his hand, it was removed from his person entirely, and 4 other guys were actively restraining him down in a crouching position. The shooter was in absolutely no danger.

    I don’t know if this was cowardice and odiocy that resulted in an unreasonable fear response because these guys are just basement dwelling bigots that were handed guns and badges without any real screening or training, or if the guy has just been itching to shoot someone and he saw the gun in his belt as his excuse/opportunity.

    Side note, even if I were an evil fascist racist small pricked ICE agent that fully supported killing this innocent bystander… I’d still be pretty fucking pissed that the dude fired on a guy that me and my 4 friends were actively dog piling on.

      As I reach for what the hell specifically drove that guy to clearly panic and draw his firearm and shoot, my best guess is he saw the gun and then saw a hand pull it. His two brain cells failed to understand it was one of his own pulling out the gun and opened fire thinking the guy just pulled his gun.

          It’s not that they suddenly love big government, it’s that they don’t actually think… period. Politics to these people has nothing to do with actual reality, and none of these people actually give a single thought about how politics actually impact their own lives. These people treat politics like a sports team. They are Republicans, so they’re on team Red. Everything their team does is automatically good, because that’s their team. Everything the other team does is bad, because that’s the other team.
